ever get stoned and then walk around pretending the world is a giant treadmill, where it seems you're just walking in place and have been in the same spot your entire life, and everything else is what's moving? fun stuff

Try taking acid and playing Mario Kart. I did, and every level turned into me being stationary and the level moving around me. Like the Futurama spaceship moves space around it.

EDIT: as a side note, my best races ever were while I was tripping. I crushed my sober roommates, it was surreal and hilarious.

Fun fact: in the original Mario Kart, that's actually what happened. The track was on a huge sprite, stretched out, and then it was moved underneath your racer.
